Tie Zhanyin was in the Zhenbei Army and was also Yu Gui's bodyguard, which Sheng Fang did not believe no matter what. The tent was quiet, and the atmosphere was so oppressive that it made people uncomfortable. The soldier glanced at Sheng Fang uneasily, suddenly patted his head and said, "Sir, I almost forgot about business. Among the military prostitutes in Zhenbei, there is a woman who is crazy. Dian, claims to be the concubine of Liu Jian, the former governor of Beifu. I don’t know whether it is true or not.
, Brother let me inform you. "
Liu Jian's concubine? Sheng Fang was suddenly startled, and felt a strange wind blowing in his heart.
Didn't Liu Jian's wives and concubines all escape? How could they be in the Zhenbei Army and serve as military prostitutes? It's so incredible.
He took a deep breath and said, "I want to visit the Zhenbei Army at night. Is this plan feasible?"
Wang Bei thought for a while and said: "If it were in the past, of course it wouldn't be possible. But now that the big brother is more or less the boss, there should be no problem under cover. But, my lord, what is the use of visiting the Zhenbei Army at night?"
Sheng Fang took a deep breath and said, "I want to capture Tie Zhan and send him to the capital."
Wang Bei was so shocked that he lost his soul.
Capturing Tie Zhan, how is this possible
Tie Zhan is General Yu's personal bodyguard. Without such an important person, General Yu would be in trouble if he didn't turn the Zhenbei Army upside down.
Sheng Fang raised the corner of his mouth, but there was no smile in his eyes, "What if I let him fake his death?"
There was a buzz in Wang Bei's head, as if he was frozen by something.
Sheng Fang took out a white porcelain vase from his arms. The porcelain vase was extremely delicate. There was a red plum painted on it. There was only one pill in it. Taking it could make a person hold his breath for three hours.
This was the treasure Qingguan gave him. He never thought that one day he would use it.
Baoqing forty-one years.
Mid-spring March.
On the 70th birthday of the ancestor of the Jiang family, the personal relationship between the prince and Dr. Gu was revealed to the world. The capital was in an uproar.
The emperor was furious and scolded the prince.
On that day, Princess Huayang hanged herself. Within half a day, rumors started to spread. Rumors pointed out that the prince was narrow-minded and drove the princess to death.
The Ministry of Punishment posted a notice saying that the princess hanged herself because she was afraid of being implicated in the rebellion of the old King Qi, so she died as an apology.
As soon as the notice came out, although the world's mouth was blocked, the prince's reputation was still inevitably damaged.
The Jiang family withdrew from the marriage on three days, and the ancestors came forward in person.
Everyone in the world scolded the female doctor Qing Guan for blooming flowers because of her watery nature. The sparrows flew up to the branches and found another high branch, and they all pointed at her behind her back.
What is surprising is that after the marriage was broken off, the Jiang family often sent carriages to bring female doctors into the house, and there was no rift between the two houses. The world only thinks that Monk Erzhang is confused.
At this time, the prince wrote a letter, willing to go to Sichuan to fight the disaster in half a month and share the safety of the people. The emperor thought about it for a day and agreed.
On the day when the prince submitted the letter, a horse-drawn carriage drove out from the Zhenxi Army. It was unknown who was sitting in the car, but the people escorting the car were all the most outstanding soldiers of the Zhenxi Army.
The carriage drove all the way south and headed straight for the capital.
Time, in the midst of the turmoil in the city, came to March 19th.
That night.
Emperor Baoqing looked at the prince on the ground with a look of distress on his brows. He hadn't seen him for half a month, but he looked like he was fine. This showed that the woman had put her thoughts into it.
"Get up and drink porridge with me."
Zhao Jingyan smiled and said: "Thank you, Father! I have been thinking about my father's porridge, and I am eager for this bite."
"Hmph!" Emperor Baoqing glanced at him coldly and said sarcastically: "This beating has not eliminated your glib tongue."
Zhao Jingyan still smiled and said: "A son acting coquettishly in front of his father is not a smooth-talking person. Does he have to be as serious as the previous one?"
The words "Father" made Emperor Baoqing feel at ease, but he still had a solemn look on his face, "Sit down."
Zhao Jingyan lifted up her clothes and sat down only half of her body. When Emperor Baoqing saw it, he knew that the injury on his hip was not fully healed, so he sneered: "It seems that the female doctor's skills are mediocre."
Zhao Jingyan smiled shyly and said: "Father, the scab has just formed. She told me that I would rather stand than sit. In fact, it is already healed."
"Thank you for being able to laugh!"
Emperor Baoqing rolled his eyes at him and ordered his servants to serve porridge and side dishes.
Zhao Jingyan was not polite. Although he had been drinking porridge and eating side dishes for the past half month, the taste of birds had faded from his mouth, but he ate with relish.
When he leaves the capital tomorrow, his father must be worried when he calls him here tonight. If he doesn't behave better, he will be let down.
When Emperor Baoqing saw this, he was overjoyed and withdrew from the palace, saying: "When I enter Sichuan this time, I will do some political achievements in a down-to-earth manner and show it to the world."
Zhao Jingyan felt warm in her heart and said: "My son understands, and I also ask my father to take care of himself and wait for my triumphant return."
Emperor Baoqing sighed softly and took a mouthful of porridge, but it was like chewing wax. As he got older, he became more concerned about his children. When Lao Ba left, he felt a little reluctant to let go.
Zhao Jingyan saw her father's face darken, threw away the porridge bowl, walked to him, and knelt down straight, "My son and minister are unfilial, and I am tired of my father's heart. My mother and concubine died early, and it was my father who raised me. I want to I regretted all the bad habits of the past.
"Old man!" Emperor Baoqing was moved.
Zhao Jingyan raised her eyes and saw that the beard under her father's lips was turning white, his face also had a look of vicissitudes of life, and he didn't know what he felt in his heart.
In the eyes of others, my father is not a good person, but for him, I have a deep love for him. Zhao Jingyan gently placed her head on his lap, put her arms around the emperor's waist, and said in a deep voice: "Father, my son will be filial to you in the future."
Emperor Baoqing's eyes flashed brightly.
In all his life, no one had ever done anything like this to him.
The throne is cold and lonely. First the emperor and his ministers, then the father and son, human nature is hidden in the desire for power. They are guarded, peeped, and separated. There has never been such a tender moment.
He raised his head, patted the prince's shoulder a few times, and said with sincerity like a father: "Please accept that woman, I can see through it, you like her. But don't pamper her too much, as pampering will cause harm. "
Zhao Jingyan raised her head in surprise, "Father, are you serious?"
"Old man, you have no words to joke about."
Emperor Baoqing coughed twice, with a cold look in his eyes.
He could see clearly that someone was secretly targeting the prince, and this person was hiding very deep. The woman is smart and has medical skills, so she should be an effective helper.
For the safety of Lao Ba and the kingdom of Dazhou, he had to take this step back.
Emperor Baoqing suddenly pushed him away, stood up, walked to the desk, and took out a tiger talisman, "You keep this thing. The thousand emperor guards in the palace only recognize the talisman, not the person, so it's time to pass it on to you."
Zhao Jingyan took the tiger talisman, and a stream of heat flowed straight down from the top door, reaching the bottom of her heart.
The Emperor's Guards, the thousand most elite and most combat-effective people around the emperor, were all carefully selected from the Imperial Guards.
Emperor Baoqing clapped his hands, and a moment later, a young imperial guard walked in and knelt on the ground.
"From today on, he is your master."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The visitor glanced at the prince and left quietly.
Zhao Jingyan saw his light steps and knew that this man was quite skilled.
"Go ahead, leave early and come back early. You can figure out how to get the money for disaster relief on your own. Anyway, you don't lack the money now." Emperor Baoqing waved his hand, as if he was shooing away flies, with great disgust.
Zhao Jingyan smiled faintly, walked forward in two steps, hugged the emperor's knees, "Father, my son can't bear to leave you."
“Get out, get out, get out…” Emperor Baoqing was so angry at his childish actions that he kept cursing.
"emperor!"
The prince left, and Eunuch Li came in with the medicine. Seeing the smile on the emperor's face, he couldn't help but smile and said: "The emperor is happy today, so he should drink this medicine more happily."
"You old man, when will I take the medicine without pleasure?" Although Emperor Baoqing looked stern, there was a hint of joking in his words.
Eunuch Li has been serving the emperor for decades. How could he not see the truth clearly? He said boldly: "The old slave just looked at the way the prince walked. He looked very much like the emperor when he was young. For a moment, he was almost dazzled. ”
Emperor Baoqing closed his eyes, as if he was speaking to him or to himself, "When I was young, I was more energetic than him. Look at him, he is out of shape all day long."
Eunuch Li smiled and said, "The Emperor's Dragon Power is incomparable to that of the Crown Prince. After looking at the past few decades, the old slave only feels that the Emperor's dragon posture is more prosperous now than it was then."
"Old, old!"
Emperor Baoqing felt very comfortable with the flattery. He opened his eyes and said, "Bring the medicine."
Eunuch Li offered the medicine and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is exactly the same as he was in those days. How can I see you old? This old slave can still serve your Majesty for decades more."
As soon as he said this, Emperor Baoqing's hand holding the medicine paused, his eyes looked at the person who followed him like a shadow, and he sighed softly.
"Old guy, you still say you are not old. Look at yourself. Even your hair is gray. How can you serve me for another few decades? If you have to suffer for another year or two, you will be able to enjoy your old age."
Eunuch Li's eyes were hot, he knelt down with a plop, and choked with sobs: "I will follow the emperor whether I live or die."
Emperor Baoqing shook his head and looked at the medicine bowl, drank half of it in one breath, "Get up, although I am the emperor, I have no choice but to live and die, cultivate Taoism and become an immortal, cultivate immortality and become a Tao... Huh, it's all nothingness! Can you?" Live, just live. I'm tired, please help me rest."
Eunuch Li wiped away his tears, took the medicine cup, and helped Emperor Baoqing to walk to the inner hall.
"Your Majesty, your concubine has brought you a midnight snack."
Emperor Baoqing paused and said, "I am tired today and don't want to take a midnight snack. Please go back, concubine."
"It's difficult for the imperial concubine to be interested. For several months in a row, she has been trying her best to nourish you, the emperor, every day."
The emperor shook off his hand and entered the palace. From afar, Eunuch Li heard a sentence, "It's only for her and the third child!"
Outside the hall, the moon reaches the middle of the sky. The moonlight is as silver as gold, and there is silence between heaven and earth.
Return to the mansion.
In the quiet courtyard, Qing Guan was dressed in white and had an awe-inspiring look. She stood quietly under the tree, looking forward to him. When she saw him coming, a smile appeared on her face.
Zhao Jingyan walked a few steps quickly, took off her cloak and put it on for her.
"It's just a few steps away, why bother?"
Zhao Jingyan said nothing, only looked at her and smiled. Qingguan looked at him for a long time and felt slightly embarrassed. She turned her head away and said angrily: "Why don't you speak?"
